I'm Gen X. And your mug slinging comes from knowing people like me own three houses and your generation has no chance to. Sorry your student loan wasn't forgiven.
I’m Gen-Ex too and you’re gross. How is hoarding wealth not trashy? Go away!
I’m a Gen X and am seriously concerned for our young people not being able to live with the same quality of life many of them grew up with. We don’t own three homes - just one that we live in. I wish that for everyone of all ages - if home ownership is something they aspire to.
Also IMO, the student debt crisis is immoral. We should not be burdening young people with life long debts just to be able to get work that pays the bills and contributes to society.
That said, I am not a fan of asking random strangers for handouts. Sustainable living needs to be structural not random and opportunistic.
Say it again! Louder. And thank you.
Students with good grades and family income below $150k can go to college for free.
Where?
Harvard and Princeton have this kind of aid money.
While college won't be free, there are people overlooking excellent public options (and transfer programs like the ones with the community colleges in many states) and opting to go to expensive, private colleges. We see it a lot in the college forum. There are people who would rather pay more for a name than dip below the most prestigious in-state, public option. Think those who turn their nose up at CNU or Salsbury and pay to send their kid away.

I've seen it at Charlottesville, but it was a bride-to-be, and she wanted strangers to buy her drinks

I need to know what kind of cars they're driving. Because if they are driving something remotely new and nice, I'll laugh so hard.
I'm admit that I'm jealous. I took Amtrak to and from school. I got my first car when I was a senior in college.

Nauseating.
We attended a church where the pastor announced that Annabelle got into Princeton and then had a special collection. We found a new church.
Ugh I would have left the church too. How about a collection for the kid who isn't even going to college let alone an ivy.

My brother in the 80's had keg parties called rent aid and his lame band paid and he would pay his rent that month.

You all are super pathetic.
IT'S A JOKE!
On college game day a dude handed up a sign saying venmo me money, need a beer. IT WAS A JOKE!
He donated a huge amount of money to a children's hospital.

I do. Our society is losing all sense of decorum. It's a sign of the downfall of the US. I mean seriously, the Roman Empire fell. Our time is coming and stuff like this represent the tiny cracks to our foundation.
Yes, the upper class hoarding all the wealth is a common cause of national collapse. We should be worried, and peacefully redistribute the wealth back where it belongs before it comes to violent methods.
